This suggests that a user will not be required to pay a fee for transactions when buying or selling <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/crypto-economy.com\/news\/nft\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">NFTs<\/a><\/strong> on the platform.<strong> Gas fees would only be charged when these assets are transferred on and off the platform.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A number of NFT platforms in the crypto space today deem it mandatory for users to have a crypto wallet prior to purchasing digital collectibles. However, <strong>the Kraken platform has simplified the situation by accepting both fiat and cryptocurrencies<\/strong>. This means that it would become possible for users to bid on a certain NFT even if they do not own any tokens.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As long as users with wallets are concerned, the NFT marketplace currently supports MetaMask and Phantom. However, there are plans to offer compatibility with WalletConnect any time soon as well. <strong>Kraken\u2019s decision revolving around the launch of its NFT program comes in the middle of increased regulatory crackdowns in the crypto space.<\/strong> Similarly, competition within the NFT world continues to stay fierce, with leaders like OpenSea and Blur dominating the entire space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Polygon Integration for the Kraken NFT Marketplace<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Kraken regarded Polygon to be the fastest-growing blockchain<\/strong> for the crypto space and also revealed that it would now be accessible from the Kraken NFT marketplace itself.
